The Dead of 1856.

The list of those who during the veal
that is gone completed their life journey
and entered the gloomy terminus beyond
which mortal vision cannot follow them
includes very many actively engaged in
railway work, and not q few eminent in
its official ranks. Among these sre the
following familiar names, given in the
order IN which their deaths were re-
corded:
John G. Stevens, president United New
Jersey r ,iroad and Canal Companies.
Daniel n. Pickering, former superin-
tendent Central Iowa.
T. A. Lewis, general manager Erie Fast
Freight Lines.
C. B. Meeker, general passenger agent
New York Central and Hudson River.

Columbus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis
and Indianapolis and ST. Louis.

Besides these more notable names there
is long list of railway men in lower
ranks, many of them not less faithful and
useful in their respective positions, who
during the year found rest from their
wearying activities. Some died peace
fully at home surrounded by the faces of
weeping friends; others met death in
falling from the icy tops of trains, or
crushed in the fearful impact of
cars, or lying helpless under
the moving wheels; others faced the last
enemy with hands on the throttles OF
their engines, vainly endeavoring to pro-
tect the lives in their charge from the
shock of colliding trains or from the fear
Iul wreck of falling bridges. Wherever
and however they died at the post of duty /,

BOLD TRAIN ROBBERY.

Masked Men Steal Arms and Ammunition
From Freight Train.
PITTsBURG, Pa, Jan. 15.-Five masked
robbers boarded q Panhandle freight train
near Sheridon station, Just at the out
skirts of the city, last night, but they
were detected in the act OF throwing
freight from the moving tram, and in the
desperate fight which ensued Fireman
Curley was shot through the right thigh
and brakeman knocked senseless with
8 stone. The trainmen then gave up the
fight to attend to the injured men, and
the thieves escaped. IL is thought the
robbers secreted themselves in the cars
before the train left this city, and as soon
as they were beyond the city
limits forced open the doors They
then broke open the Car doors
and threw out number of guns and a
quantity of ammunition 1t is thought the
men got away with some of the arms.
Several theories have been advanced as
TO why the cars were selected that were
loaded with arms. 1t is though by some
persons that the gang may have been
anarchists and they were trying to
secure rifles and ammunition for future
use. They evidently seemed to have
known before hand what the contents of
the cars were, as both Of the cars broken
open contained arms.

Look For Them! As For Them,

The first time you are in a drug store, look
for st. Patrick's Pills, ask for them, buy
them, they are decidedly the most pleasant
physic and the best family medicine ever
brought into general use.
The recent press dispatches reporting
Asiatic Cholera at Detroit, Mich calls to
mind the epidemic of malignant dysentery,
called cholera, at Center Point, Iowa, in
1879. Within few weeks over forty per-
sons died from it. The principal druggist of
the town, Mr.. George B. Dunbar, who is
in business there, sold Que hundred and
eight ffty-ceut bottles of Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhe Remedy, during,
the epidemic. and states that to the best of
his knowledge, it did not fail in a single
instance. The local paper published there,
said the same. and spoke of IL In the highest
terms. The Remedy was used in fully 3eo
cases, and not TO fail in a single instance, Is
certainly remarkable, when so many died
who were treated by physicians, or used
other medicines. The scourge was nm.
doubleday stayeo by Chamberlain's Collie.

lives saved. 1t is medicine that every
family should be pro, ided with. Sold by
